Meeting format and standout activities at Celo 2026
The format relies on one-to-one meetings, collaborative workshops, working groups, assigned seating at meals and a dinner carrousel that structures networking. The event removes exhibition stands and general visitors to concentrate time on prearranged business conversations.
Who attends and how participants are selected
Participation is capped at 170 attendees to preserve the quality of exchanges. Providers are screened to ensure fit with buyer requirements and the event limits competition by accepting no more than two providers per sector. Testimonials from companies such as Interlog Group and Boa Concept highlight the practical and business-driven nature of the format.
Practical advice for commercial outreach at Celo 2026
- Prepare three clear project briefs you want to advance during the event and share them ahead of time.
- Request confirmed meeting schedules and assemble a concise dossier per project with objectives, timelines and indicative budgets.
- Prioritize contacts by decision power and define a single objective per meeting: validate feasibility, agree a pilot or set milestones.
- Close every meeting with agreed next steps and named owners. Use short meeting minutes to accelerate decision making.
These actions align with Celo 2026’s model which starts from buyer needs and organizes interactions to deliver concrete outcomes.
Key figures and what sets the event apart
The edition limits attendance to 170 participants and offers workshops whose topics are defined by the participants. The event leadership includes the former director of the SITL Supply Chain Event, a factor highlighted among the event’s distinctive features.
